Doing research on that.

Again, I'm trying to build a powerful, [U]reliable[U], car. So if there's anything else you guys would suggest, let me know.
To be honest, this motor can use all the cooling it can get, especially FI. Half my costs were supporting the power. 3/4 of that was just on cooling. Yes, I consider meth as a method of cooling. So be sure you have your budget and another budget for "incidentals"... GTM won't steer you wrong, but what they recommend and what you need are two different things.
